Seagulls Revenge

Check out what I did last night. I made a NES video game! "Sea Gulls Revenge"
your sammy the sea gull and you save salt lake from the utter doom of mutated crickets and Brine shrimp. Oh yeah almost forgot Special guest Krong makes an appearance! It was really an illustration I did on an article about the video game industry in Salt Lake.

Digital Graffiti @ Magic


I was at the Magic trade show down in Vegas. The New Era booth  had this huge screen that you could do pieces with a digital spray can. It wasn't exactly like 'spray can controls' but pretty dang close. I'd love to have this in my living room.  Don't judge me on this it took a bit of getting use to.

After a Violent Haunt post I decided to show you all my fluffy side. Painting for a friend on bleach wood.

Haunt



If your not reading Haunt... your missing out. It's not rocket science but the story is very engaging, lots of cliff hangers, violence and espionage. Great dynamic art and enough story to keep you wondering. It's....Ghost (Patrich Swayze) X Metalgear Solid X James Bond X Dead Alive (The Violence Aspect).

You Can't Touch Vanilla Ice Ice Baby



I did this to get Hammer and Ice tickets when they came last summer. It worked really well. I got in and felt like I was eight all over again. Hammer did all his OG stuff Ice...not so much.

Zombies Will Be Hot

As if they're not already....Zombies will be a huge deal with the new TV Show "The Walking Dead" by comic book writer Robert Kirkman. Below is one of many concept that I quickly threw together for a headphone graphic in our 2011 line. All my Zombie concepts got squashed by the corporate filter. Now all I can do is sit back and watch how Zombies will become even more of a pop culture phenomenon and wonder how a Zombie headphone would have done.

Headband concept....

Flying Eyeballs


I love the curvy one in my sketch book but I had to straighten it out to fit on some product. On the facing page you can see some ideas and my first sketch of the "puke skull Logo." You can see the final in an earlier post.

Final variations with color.

No Guns No Gold "Sampy"



First round sample of my Shrunken head Skate deck.  It took a while for them to make it. Very very soon you can purchase one of these shralp sticks on the skullcandy site.

My Rat-Rod


Though it got punished, my car won the beauty award at the Heber city Demolition derby!

I did the "Tiger shark" face on the front. JT one of out interns at the skull did all the skulls and the pinup stencil. He kind of just put 'em every where.














Look for 'em in the Kamas Demolition Durby! Cody Stephens will be driving it. Twisted Metal Bra!

Painting at the PIe



My Big brother was in town and it always seems we go to his favorite pizza joint The Pie. It's kind of an unwritten law that you can write your name on the wall.  I thought if you can write something why not paint something. When my folks went to college thats where they chilled and it's still a college hang out today. I'm curious to see how long this little guy lasts.
